Myths Matter


I’m not going to get all Joseph Campbell with it, but myths matter. The stories people tell, tell so much about the culture who tells them.  Myths can tell people about the human condition, and say a lot about life.  Myths aren’t about “universal truths” or even reality – but they are so very much about us. Some of my favorite myths:


American Gods by Neil Gaiman
Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley
Brisingamen by Diana L. Paxson

I wanted to write more, but this week I’m feeling so uninspired (and I still have a Midsummer ritual to write).
